I doubt most people prefer to use the ndisulator over a native driver.
However, many people don't have the skills, time, or money to provide
the incentives you are talking about. At this point ndisulator
provides a means to an end: working wireless and it isn't causing
significant strain on the project in terms of development effort.
Our end users are not always developers and I think removing this
feature will hurt more than it will help.
